RussoDaFederal Posted November 30, 2024 Share Posted November 30, 2024 I mean, just look at her. Klei did an amazing job, I love this gradient, and now I can't decide if I like shadow Abby or gestalt Abby more. I think I'll stick with shadow Abby cause I'm more of a team player, I play with the same four people every week for years now, and the extra vex damage will help everyone. Plus, I really like that she's more reminiscent of the original Wendy (murdering little creatures from your inventory). I can't wait for this update to get out of beta!

WenericMember Posted November 30, 2024 Share Posted November 30, 2024 Love shadow Abby. Bringing back the original Don't Starve Wendy summoning mechanic is an inspired choice, and feels right at home with the shadow alignment. It also does a great job of contrasting the lunar alignment. While Gesalt Abby gives a massive buff to Abby's survivability, the shadow alignment doubles down on the original playstyle, hugely buffing her potential damage output in exchange for maintaining her fragility. It could probably use some QOL so you don't spend all day catching animals to sacrifice, but even if you don't its a worthwhile trade. My biggest concern going into the tree was that they'd relegate Wendy's alignments to "Planar Damage & Defense for Abby," and I'm very happy they gave a bunch of unique skills.

Evelo Posted December 1, 2024 Share Posted December 1, 2024 I too love Shadow Abby. I am so happy we have the Murder back for Wendy. It is awesome. Even if it is quite powerful. I do like how it is any murder action and Spiders are notoriously easy and cheap to capture with a Trap so it could be rather easy. Alternatively if you are playing with friends, a Wurt with the Mosquito Plushy can just grab them out of the sky and hand them to Wendy to murder whenever.

usagiP Posted December 1, 2024 Share Posted December 1, 2024 I'm not really a fan of her appearance. But I think maybe I could weave some skin to change her image ~ :3 (((That being said, I still think she deserves a better initial design.

Tbh I think Shadow Abbi is balanced without Beefalo. It's just with Beef that it gets into (and possibly above) Wolfgang levels. Wait that's such a cute synergy. I guess Webber could do that with spiders too, though It can't stack. 2 minutes ago, Wormboi said: Can some explain how shadow abi works? Upon using the murder action (Killing a mob in you're inventory), Abigail will get shadow energy, doubling her damage Output (from 10,20,40 to 20,40,80) for 8 seconds, though it stacks based on the number of mobs killed. This in combo with the shadow alignment potion, which further increases Vex effectiveness, and Beefalo Wendy is capable of getting Wolfgang levels of damage.

What do you have in mind? I think it might be better if the darkness was leaking out of the flower, rather than the bottom of her. In a similar vein the flower could alternatively have a similar effect to Winona's shadow inspection.
